I think the questions about his unborn baby were rude and uncalled for Curt. They were intrusive and without consideration for what is obviously a traumatic event. You didn't even offer your condolences, nor express any empathy for his feelings. I was shocked by your callous approach. Travis was kind enough to try and answer your question, but they became more and more... Intrusive.. really disappointed in you for that, you are normally a decent interviewer
Agreed, the interviewer is a tool. I put this on to go to sleep, and when I heard that part I got up and turned my head to the monitor like did he really just ask him that?
Travis is one of the most humble people I've ever seen interviewed, who had gone through such an ordeal. I truly value this interview, thank you for giving Travis respect and treating him well!
I was expecting detailed questioning about his abduction experience. I’d literally have so many questions about his abduction we’d all be able to envision it
I feel so sorry for him that even people in the comments here are ridiculing him. I mean everyone who does research on this story should know that it would be a very hard story to hoax. And you can really see that in their faces, that these men went through a difficult experience.
@@JohnnyBoy144 He created a book which gives every detail there is. It's worth the money. You have to get it from his website. Also, there is a long section in the book where he responds the the skeptics when they attacked him back then. Mainly Philip Klass.
Few years ago i had an encounter while on a canoe camping trip with my son, it was about 3.30am and ide crawled out the tent to take a leak, there wasn`t a cloud in the sky, it was pitch black but you could see every star in the sky from this field we`d camped in, as i walked towards a few bushes i felt something like a static charge and i looked about and for a split second i saw a bluey green light just above me, reminded me of what a plasma discharge looks like from a tesla coil, i looked straight up above my head and saw a distortion in the sky, i could still see the stars but it was like i was looking at them in the reflection in water, they shimmered, only way i can describe it it was like the predator when he engages his invisibility device, this distortion was moving real slow, eventually it passed over head and as i looked more at it and the further it got away it started to see a solid object, eventually i saw a leading edge to a disk shaped object, it looked like brushed tin or pewter, no sound at all apart from a gentle hum which i could feel in my chest, like you do at a rock concert when the bass kicks in, there was no engine exhaust, no rotors or ailerons or anything you`d identify as an aircraft, it was seamless and looked like it was injection moulded from 1 piece, i guess it travelled about half a mile away from me, over the river we`d canoed down that day and all of a sudden it shot up vertically that fast ide say within 2 seconds it looked like just another star, this was in the UK at a place called Ironbridge near telford, i`ll never forget that as long as i live
He is a humble person and the experience he describes is riveting. It's not easy to recall such trauma, regardless of whether or not his experience was tangible, physically verifiable or based in waking reality, it is clearly real to the interviewee and for that we owe him much respect.
Thanks Travis for answering some very difficult and hard questions, appreciate it and for trying to be as open as possible in this interview, best one I've seen yet
I don't appreciate this man telling all of our secrets, how can we as aliens molest you humans when guys like this go around telling our perverted stories. This is definitely not right.
@Mike Remington Agreed. His interview style is anything but empathic and in my opinion shows no ability as an interviewer to connect to the person being interviewed. There was a distinct lack of rapport. That's too bad because when you create a rapport, you help the subject of the interview relax and that elicits more trust and ultimately more information. I feel like anyone could have read the questions he had prepared and produced the same (or better) results.
@@mremington8 Travis seems to be pretty tuff. A lesser man would checked out. I also have friends with Curts matter of fact demeanor. They seem to lack the ability to form a deeper connection than most. Nothing mean or disrespectful intended.
@@eekoeek1 Typical "murican" statement. It is not other countries that are un-devoted or disrespectful or blah blah, it is you "muricans" who are always like the princess complaining about that pea she can feel under 12 matresses. Either you love everything and everyone ,or you hate everything or everyone. A completely ravaged nation
I wanted to enjoy this interview, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel slightly uncomfortable/annoyed while watching it. You came across annoyed and stand-off ish whenever Travis didn’t answer some of your questions, or if he got distracted. I feel in some parts you were even insensitive. I get that you’re curious and want answers, but I suggest having more humility towards people you’re interviewing, especially if they had an experience they keep claiming terrified/traumatized them.
I had the pleasure of spending a day at a MUFON conference where Travis Walton was one of the speakers, I have spent over 20 years researching his case. He was one of the most humble nonattention seeking intelligent persons I have ever met and for anyone who actually looks at the real facts of his case there can be no doubt he is telling the truth about his amazing experience! I personally admire him for having the courage to tell the truth despite all the personal abuse he has suffered through the years and from all the debunkers who have made up countless lies and attempts to smear him. May G-d bless Travis Walton!
This poor man. As a young girl I had a bit of a crush lo!. I have been interested in this case, and the topic in general, more so since my last experience about ten years ago. Before that I didn't know what I'd been seeing . he is such a strong person, I'd love to know what he means by having personal paranormal experiences and other experiences that he has kept to himself, because he couldn't document them. I've had some weird things happen , so I assume this would b that phenomenon that continues with people, there's a word for it, I can't think of it right now though. But many who have had experiences have other Things happen too oh ok its called the hitchhiker effect, I just remembered. Lol.
Everyone who meets a person of “celebrity status” says the same BS all the time. “I met him in person and he was nice for ten minutes therefore he is incapable of any wrong”. Bro he said to his mother before he was abducted “if I get abducted by aliens soon don’t worry I’ll be back”. And his buddy who told the tale with him came forward recently saying he was lying. Walton is making this up. They passed their lie detector test being asked if there was any foul play in Walton’s disappearance. Walton did not pass his lie detector test about the incident and the dude even noted “he was holding his breath trying to cheat”. Let it go
I see an extremely traumatized human being. Traumatized by the experience itself and because of the ridicule following it. Thank you Curt and Travis for this experince.
Travis isn’t extremely traumatized. He was initially and for several years after, however he’s the only living Alien Abduction experiencer who’s story has never been debunked. He’s also an extremely healthy individual who hasn’t been sick a day in his life since. If people think he’s different, he is. He experienced something very few people live to tell.
The most ridiculous on paper for me personally. However, the fact that his friends were being looked at as murderers and they didn't recant says alot. People normally break for less.
I agree to an extent, he doesn’t come across as actively traumatized but definitely still living with something. When he recounts the experience you can see in his body language and face that he’s reliving what he went through to an extent. It leads me to believe him, not to mention the other witnesses and evidence. A chilling event. No doubt I believe him when he says he should have never gotten out of the truck.
This interview made me like Travis even more, and I was a fan early on already. This is what people used to call a “straight shooter”. He’s been through so much, still tells the same story, understands a LOT about other people and doesn’t want to be a celebrity in any level. Great interview- well prepared and the even level and respectful way of questioning seemed to help Travis settle in for a serious and helpful meeting.
Poor man, he seems traumatized from public degradation. It's really not cool how close-minded us humans can be. Travis, if you ever see this, I hope you know that most people now will treat you kindly. Therapy can be immensely helpful.
Travis is 1000% the real deal.....not only him but the whole crew passed the best lie detector tests at the time, passed money down which at that time was a very large amount. Travis you are a trooper amongst troopers....a hero among heroes.....you never ever sold out nor ever even compelled it, too me you Travis are one hell of a stand up character both in your moral compass and you being who you are. Stay well and healthy too all you and all your family my friend. Take care all the way from Halifax Nova Scotia Canada!
The truth of the testimonies is their experiences. It does not give them any clues about how nature works or who the abducto..s were. This is the problem of how most people jump to conclusions about subjects they don't have the int..lect to comprehend.
Curt, not only am I fascinated by these UFO/UAP interviews but I just noticed how much work you put into your videos, so much great info on an interesting topic that’s seeming to be fantasy becoming reality and you are at the forefront of all this info. Keep up the great work!
Another great interview Curt. I found your way of questioning and the way you managed the flow of the interview really helped to keep Travis engaged and focused on specifics. I do feel sorry for Travis, in the sense that he clearly has been accused of falsifying his case so many times that on a few occasions I think he may have confused some of your questions as accusations. That’s obviously understandable. However, it’s clear to the audience that you certainly didn’t challenge his views or accuse him of lying or making things up at all. You were very understanding and inclusive in your manner of speech. Keep it up. Your personable attitude towards your guests will make your channel grow for sure.
Yes,you are thoughtful to not be taking his moments where he sounded a little angry,personally. Many of us are finding your interviews quite wonderful! Thank you so much!
I am speechless that you managed to speak with Travis Walton about his experience. I hope he also apreciates speaking about it and i wish him all the best for his ongoing life. Thank you both for sharing this with us ❤️
Thank you for talking to us Mr. Walton. I really appreciate you doing interviews like this. It’s awful you have to relive the trauma by answering so many questions again, but you’re so gracious to do so. Thanks again.🙏🏼
It was a tough interview in places, which is most likely due to the trauma of Travis' experience. Thank you so much for your gentle tenacity and many thanks to Travis for his candid and interesting testimony of this very harrowing subject for him. Thank you once again!
Lol. Trauma? He’s written books sold the rights to Hollywood. The guy has a booth sit up at ufo enthusiasts gathering where you can pay for a picture. Oh the trauma.
@oldironsides4107 What would you suggest? That he curl up in a ball in a closet somewhere and never speak to anyone again? For some, facing trauma by engaging it, writing & talking about, is helpful. What about all the survivors of abuse, or war, or any number of other things, who go on to speak publicly, to write, to share? Should they just hide themselves away too? Just food for thought x
I like this guy Travis. He seems like a good enough soul and I believe he experienced the trauma he describes. It is a bit sad Travis wishes it never happened and it hasn't on balance been a positive experience. Also, Curtis did a great job in the interview. It felt a little awkward at times, but, unlike other interviewees, Curtis didn't fall into the temptation of talking about himself or his life or his experiences, and kept if very unemotional, and I think as a result new information has come to light. Great interview and a fascintating subject.
I commend you Travis for your willingness, candor and generosity in sharing your experiences; especially considering the more difficult aspects of doing so. I believe you wholeheartedly; and I'm very disaapointed you face such negativity and blowback from others. I hope you're able to remake the film as you see fit; if so, you will certainly have my support at the box office and beyond. Thank you Curt for hosting in such a professional, direct yet considerate manner; and for including the audience members. Blessings to you both, and yours.
Travis Walton is a class act and a global treasure!! Surviving everything that he had to and then emerging as a statesman speaks volumes about the man. I would have rid myself of the whole wide world if I were him. So I never tire of hearing him speak with such calm and profound wisdom. We’re lucky to have him around and speaking out for awakening the mainstream consciousness. Thanks a million to both Travis and Curt for this great session 🙏🏻 ❤️
Travis does talk credibly, much like the Navy pilots who see UAPs talk credibly. I hope extraterrestrials give us some physical evidence of their existence soon.
@@rodstarcke5423 I believe they have, even though it has been denied throughout the years by people in the know. There have been encounters with tens of thousands of witnesses. The Phoenix Lights incident looks like it could have been a way for the phenomena to make their own disclosure, but once again, that was covered up as well. There were just so many credible witnesses, and many of them were disgusted by the response of our military and government officials, as well as with the media. We could be so much further along, if they just let it come out.
Thank you, Travis for letting Curt interview you for us. I am a fellow believer that has had 2 close encounters in my 72 years . Late Summer 1977 ,at night, along the deserted beach in Michigan City, Indiana (Lake Michigan shoreline) which my dog ,Kahlua, alerted me to. Again in a potato field at night a few miles outside LaPorte ,Indiana (my hometown) with my friend ,Ed, while we searched for pot plants during the Winter of 1980-1981.(We were stone sober in the cold early Winter night.) Mufon has my detailed experiences online. Each close encounter was within 150 feet of observation. You are not alone Travis in your beliefs. I /We were not abducted but I am sure we could have easily been. I wish to let people know that I am sure Travis did experience a rare once in a lifetime event after experiencing my sightings close at hand and with my dog and a friend. I have since realized that we as a world are of very little significance in the Universe on the grand scale of things. The governments are hiding factual truths about visitations whether they are us from our own future (time travel), beings from another plane or dimension beside ours, or alien life forms that may have been here for decades since the detonations of our first atomic bombs or earlier. Think outside the box on possibilities of more advanced technologies and civilizations other than ours. Look how far we on earth have advanced in just the last 100 years from the first cars, biplanes, and electric light bulb use. Imagine a civilization that has been around 5000 years without wars and starvation but leap frogged in science and medicines and social ways. We are not alone and if we are, it would be a mistake.
I was abducted at the beginning of the year. There is nothing worse then talking to people and needing someone to understand and having everyone think your crazy. Its such a traumatizing event that your entire perception of time is changed and you feel truly crazy. I ended up getting amnesia and losing my ability to talk for almost a month. It changed me for the rest of my life.
Travis seems pretty level headed. I think people should allow him to finish his human experience without inflecting there thoughts on what happened, he is intelligent, and very wise to what happened to him. Peace and light Travis.
My theory on the greys size. They come from a super earth, or a planet larger than ours. They are smaller due to the increased gravity, all animals there are smaller. They operate at night, as there star is either more distant or not as bright/energetic (which is good, no coronal mass ejections to wipe them out early). So they prefer to operate in low light, twilight, or night. Also they are not interested in being observed and avoid large pop centers usually, so the cover of night, knowing humans cant see very well at night, is also an opportunity.
It's good that you detected Travis's skepticism avoidance and addressed it openly. I think it really helped smooth out the conversation and take his walls down a little bit.
I appreciate your honesty and courage and resilience in surviving this event and speaking publicly about it. My heart hurts for you because I can tell how frustrating and painful it is when people are asking such pointed memory questions and memory is so profoundly affected by trauma and stress (as well as injury). Just because you can’t draw them picture perfect recall doesn’t mean anything… if you put anyone under stress into an unfamiliar setting and later asked them to describe and draw the details, they’d be shocked how much they can’t actually recall. Many people aren’t going to believe no matter what, but for those who have had their own confusing experiences but don’t feel able to speak out you’re a true hero. For those who are exploring this topic with an open mind this interview is another solid piece of evidence that deserves their attention.
Thank you, Curt, for all of the work you do! Truly amazing. You do the homework above and beyond as well as treat people the way you would want, if not expect, to be treated. The level of professionalism is a true breath of fresh air. It is also heartening to find a Physicist/Scientist with excitement and enthusiasm for the possibility of learning new, almost impossible facets of all sciences to come!!
I cant even imagine the paradigm shift and PTSD that he has had to have gone through, because of his experience. Then he has had all of the experiences with skeptics, debunkers and even those that knew he was being truthful, and still chose to deny the truth to the public. The man has been through hell and back, and still maintains the same story, all of these years later. I have so much respect for him speaking his truth. I can tell that certain questions bother him, but again, I can't even imagine what he has already endured, and because of the intense scrutiny and criticism, he is understandably reluctant to answer some questions. Thank you so much for this interview. You did an amazing job.
Travis Walton's experience was very real along with Betty and Barney Hill in 1961. These are the ones that can never be debunked by the authorities because there is too much evidence
Totally agree with that, but you have to admit there's also a problem with people not being skeptical enough. I sure want to be open-minded, but think it's important to also be skeptical.
@@t.c9537 After reading the rationalwiki page about Travis Walton I was skeptical, but he does come across as pretty intelligent. So maybe the issue is more that rationalwiki is TOO skeptical and cynical.
@@dannyvanhecke It's always better to hear it straight from the horse's mouth...stories always changes a little with every person who retells it...things are added and misunderstood and often the story gets a touch of the person who retells it
@@t.c9537 The problem is that there are many scam artists and delusional people... so that makes it difficult to separete them from people who're actually honest and sane.
Thanks for having Travis. I have followed him from the beginning. I don't think his life has been easy since his experience. Maybe I got it wrong but he seems to have just accepted his notoriety and made the best of it. It doesn't seem like to many who have similar experiences have enhanced lives.
Yo the guy asking the questions be more passionate and bond with this guy… it’s so easy to tell you don’t give af how this make him feel about opening up to you… you’re just asking questions after questions ..not even saying like “I feel your pain my heart goes out to you..SOMETHING” Travis seems so genuine and you’re hammering him with questions without connecting..JUST SOME WORD OF ADVICE
Bro 100%! Curt is so cold and seems he only cares about getting his answers. He never smiles or makes Travis feel comfortable in any way. I'm amazed at all the comments about how good curt did at interviewing Travis. More like an interrogation if you ask me. I felt for Travis the entire interview , it deff could of been a little less harsh. He didn't even say thank you at the end he just said "ok, take care and that's it.....
I think if you had taken the time to research Travis’ experience and maybe gotten to know him a bit before this long form interview, it would have been better for Travis. I worry that after this he will be less inclined to do interviews with new people. He’s been gawked at for 46 years. Either you believe him or you don’t. Maybe having moderators who can flag/send you the best questions from the chat would help. Some of the questions were thoughtless and expecting him to recall specific and mundane details (like wanting to know specific details about the ramp) that have nothing to do with his experience wasted a lot of time.
Oh boy, what a treat. My favourite UFO abductee and one of the very few whose story I accept as legitimate. Thank you for this and good to see Travis doing well.
He's been pretty consistent from what I've seen. I tend to look for logical inconsistencies, whether they change their story and just overall vibe and I haven't see anything with him yet. Plus a few of them passed the lie detector.
Dude, your interview skills, cmon man, i kind of felt bad for Travis here- this seemed more like a police interrogation rather than an empathetic collaborative exchange between two adults. you probably should find a career where you dont have to interact with other humans.
I know what you mean, but we need to consider the subject matter, this is for want of a better word ‘alien’ to us all. Personally I’ve never been convinced by this guy, but I do believe in aliens, etc I’m more convinced by lazar, j fravour
Curt’s becoming my fav interviewer for UFO folks. He has this “chutzpah” (in a good way) that enables him to ask uncomfortable questions and persist until the guest answers or at least acknowledges the question. Almost in kind of an “autism-spectrumy” type way lol 😂 (I mean that in a positive way)... blunt and direct. And if there seems to be an inconsistency in something a guest says, he doesn’t just breeze past it like George Noory or any other interviewer does... he doesn’t move on until the guest clarifies. I LOVE it. I sent your Luis Elizondo video to several people, and they all agreed it’s by far the best Lue interview they’ve ever heard. It had NEW information. Usually, every Lue interview is the same... same questions... same answers... once you watch a few, you’ve watched them all. But Curt (and the chat) got _new_ info out of Lue. Thanks Curt Russel! We love you!
I thought the same thing in terms of autism-spectrum type of way. Nothing against it but there were some responses that almost seemed rude and dismissive of the situation. I thought I was the only one. He definitely has a way different style of interviewing people compared to others
I like how Curt drills in for more details, I get frustrated in lots of interviews where oh this guy was in a craft not of human origin. So, what was the material like? Are there any shapes in the corner of the ceiling? What are the angles of the line? What was the temperature? Im looking at you Joe Rogan Bob Lazar interview.
I totally agree with you, although at first I thought it was aloofness on his part and didn't particularly like him/his interviews. I'm so glad I stuck with him though, as I soon realised my first impression was totally based on my own biases and prejudices. Your description of Curt and his interview style is nailed on. He's now become my favourite interviewer and TOE is my favourite podcast
You're absolutely right. He does a great job here of persisting when Travis is being vague and evasive. In doing so, he has exposed Travis as someone with a very unconvincing story, full of holes and inconsistencies. I'm 100% sure now that the "abduction" of Travis never happened.
I think you should try to let the guests talk a bit at the beginning about new projects, their experiences, just random stuff, rather than just Q & A from jump. Also , importantly try to connect with the guests, develop a rapport. Like when you asked the Mustache question it was funny and cool and you got a few laughs out of TW. On some Q and A’s you seem distant and cold. I think it would help you out tremendously. But as always you do a great job. Keep it up.
Love your guests and videos, man! I agree with this insightful comment, you could definitely try to break the ice with your guests (at the start of the interviews and throughout, it'd help them feel comfortable and more free to talk/expound if they felt really welcome and heard by you. Love your vids, but can sometimes feel stiff, awkward, a bit cold. You got this bro, keep it up!
If curt allows people to stick to their base story, we don’t get responses from the heart. It’s great how it is, it’s clunky at time because the guests don’t expect to be intellectually questioned.
@DogMan maybe I did so what? The format can be a lot better and so can the interview but Curt is on the ball and always getting better. 2 things can be true.
My brother has a small ranch in Northern Arizona. There is a lot of strange things in that area. In fact there is a small canyon that we spent the night in several times with repeated experiences that we are yet to explain. Travis’s story is as solid a story that there is.
Find in Travis book 'The Walton Experience' ...Travis is a 22 year old naive country boy (his own words) in a forest at night. Encounters a flying saucer and gets zapped by a blue light wakes on craft. Heinlean book 'Have Space Suits Will Travel' ...Kip is a 18 year old country boy in a field at night, encounters a flying saucer and gets zapped by a blue light wakes up in craft. Also in 'universe' by Heinlein...A young Hugh discovers a control room on a flying saucer and inside craft there is a seat. Find that seat in Travis account is similar to Kirk's seat in Star Trek and 2001:A Space Odyssey grid screen on the chair.
Problem with Curt is that sometimes he comes across as a bit rude, interrupting abruptly at the end of people talking. He should have more emotion and tact in these questions. Not such an obtrusive manner about him just because he wants certain questions answered. Other times he does well, and looks intensely interested and gives people time to talk. Just not entirely consistent.
It is unfortunate so many questions are asking for insights beyond what he's shared before. When anyone is in a state of tremendous trauma, the mind doesn't allow for clear perceptions. High levels of the endorphins adrenalin or cortisol interfere with a wide variety of mental clarity, including detailed memory. I'm impressed with Travis' patience. He clearly seems somewhat stressed base on facial expressions. I've met Travis at a local talk he gave, and found him to be very authentic, sincere and open.
@@XRATEQ He's aging dont forget. So he might recount things incorrectly. The only thing I'm aware of that outwardly stands out a bit too off is on the Joe Rogan podcast he said they have pupils and here he gives in the impression he didnt see pupils. (or rather outwardly admits he didnt see pupils) You'd be amazed how wrong you can remember something that happened but very incorrectly. But yes the pupil thing has definitely made me more skeptical.
This was a very interesting though difficult interview. Curtis, I truly appreciate your direct questions and kindness. I'm so sorry that Travis has had such a terrible time. I'm really enjoying your RUclips channel. Such interesting people.
This must have been a very difficult conversation on both sides, Curt, but you really seemed to do the best you could to navigate it. Well done to you both.
You are doing great work Curt. So many great guest speakers on UFO- related topics. I’m sure you are learning a lot from each one, and given your high intelligence and education, at this rate you will inevitably become an expert on the subject yourself.
I understand Travis and his hesitation…back in 2005 while living in ft lauderdale I experienced a close encounter (a saucer type flying ship flew over my head not higher than 7 feet over the ground while I was lying down watching the stars) that changed my life but I have zero proof other than my call to nuforc and subsequent report and also the fact earlier another person had a similar encounter in satellite beach which I found out much much later…these encounters are so extraordinary that you barely recall details because your whole body mind and soul are in a state of shock…
I'm envious, my uncle had a similar experience where a craft hovered a few feet infront of his truck. I keep my eyes on the sky and only catch glimpses but I still have plenty of time here. I hope anyway
Hats off to you Curt for a respectful interview you are a young dude and just your willingness to give Travis this.opportunity speaks volumes as to your character!...Thanks Curt
I couldn't believe it when he talked about the black triangle over the car. Happened to me as well in Brisbane, Australia. I don't remember where I was going to, where I was coming from, who was in the car with me or any other memory prior or after the incident though I remember exactly where I saw it because of the direction the craft was moving to after being over the car. It was about 2-30 ft above the car. I remember seeing a red magenta central light and piping structures on the hull. As it moved slowly over the car into a netball field that was next to us, I could feel the air vibrating like waves as the craft moved. I wish I could go back to that moment and relive it because once you have an experience like that, you really start questing yourself.
What a genuine humble guy. I feel for him. You can tell it has had massive ramifications on him. I truly wish him all the best & good fortune in the future 🙏
Travis is a brave man to speak of his experience and open himself up to these hostile attacks by those who want to discredit him. It's not like he's getting rich from the disclosure. He is a generous courageous and kind soul to share his traumatic experience .
Great interview, Curt got great information from Travis. You can’t listen to Travis’s sober, humble, and considered story, without believing him, he could have hidden from all the doubters, but he has simply told the story, of something amazing and frightening that happened to him. A courageous fellow indeed
I’ve heard of this Ufo story threw my tablet.It’s too bad that Travis Walton got so traumatized by this incident!It must’ve been terriable to go threw?I also saw the incident threw drawing’s,way back in 2015.There was a narrator on it,I believe?I’ve also seen other Ufo 🛸 stories threw the internet.My Uncle saw a Ufo 🛸 fly down when he was alive during the summer of 1984.My dad had told me about it,before he had passed away.My Uncle saw a ship that came down from the sky,a door opened up in the Ufo,and two other light’s came out.After that,the Ufo 🛸 shot straight up in the sky,along with the two light’s.I kept this a secret,until I told a friend of my mom’s.I never told anyone else about this incident.Peace to you,Travis!😊😊😊😊😊
For anyone interested in more from Travis, he was on Art Bell's show and it is here on RUclips. I have followed this subject for my entire life and have had my own experiences. I believe Travis and in the U.F.O. phenomenon. Edit: Thank you Curt for what you're doing for this topic. I also have to say I do feel bad for Travis. He's so reluctant to just speak about things because of how he's been treated prior. I wish him the best.
I think this interview has finally exposed Travis' story as being untrue. He uses all sorts of excuses to avoid answering questions - but Curt doesn't let him off the hook and we can see that Travis is just making his story up. A great interview.
@@Midwinter2 You might very well be right. This is a story I've grown up with and fully admit I've never been critical of. I honestly have no insight into the credibility of his claims. Truth is, I want to believe it and am smart enough to know what that does to my interpretation. I respect your assessment and welcome it. I've been wrong many times and could very well be wrong here. With or without Travis, there's something going on and we should all be paying close attention to it. Thanks for giving me pause.
@@jpvielleux Well, thanks for your gracious and rational response. I've been interested in this story since I saw the movie based on Travis' story, "Fire in the Sky" - way back when it was released. It had a very powerful impact on me - I was gripped and terrified by it. I know exactly what you mean about wanting it to be true. I've been there. But in recent years I've converted to Carl Sagan's doctrine: extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. So I enjoy the tall tales about UFOs - I am intrigued by them, and they fire my imagination. But when it comes to believing the claims, I need evidence - and it has to be evidence at a level that meets the level of the claim. The claims of people like Travis and Bob Lazar are utterly astounding and world-changing. They're wonderful stories - but they need some serious evidence for me to believe them. Mind you, even before we can consider any evidence, I find the accounts of both Travis and Bob Lazar to be of poor quality and unconvincing. Neither appears to be relating a genuine, lived experience. Their descriptions are vague where you would expect them to be specific and detailed. Both men are evasive and full of excuses as to why they can't give straight answers to simple questions.
Great job Curt! As a person who is very familiar with PTSD I can tell you that Travis appears to be suffering from it still. The ease with which he appeared to become agitated is very much a symptom of PTSD. I wonder if he has ever tried EMDR? This is an interesting therapy for PTSD which appears to work exceptionally well. He would very likely benefit from it. I say this in case this can be brought to his attention, not to criticize, but to help. I really appreciate your interviewing skills and subject matter across the board!
I know of 3 abductees. One of them I knew well enough to believe his story. His experience was brief: he saw a UFO overhead, then lost about 20 minutes of memory and came to in a snow bank near the place he had been standing. His father also had experiences with UFOS. I never talked to his father, only learned of that from my sister. The other person's experiences began in childhood. The two people I spoke with did seem to be somewhat disturbed in recalling their experiences but did not have PTSD. The 3rd person that I know of but do not know personally does not want to discuss his experience, but is otherwise normal.
@@samdanner6806 Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy treatment that was originally designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories
I have extensive experience with EMDR specifically for treatment of PTSD. I thought the exact same thing in regards to his very obvious trauma. EMDR made a profound change in my ability to deal with my own traumatic experience in my life and I would hope Travis could receive some relief in the same manner.
This one is good but there is one more that's really good too. I think the interview was done by that ex wrestler guy whose name I can't remember right now. Anyway I think that's the one where he describes a lot more of what he witnessed inside the ship.
When Travis stares off for what seems a few moments silently after some questions (for example the sound of the craft over him) I can't help but feel his trauma. Kudos to Travis for being as strong as he could and bravo again Curt 🤘😁💯
Find in Travis book 'The Walton Experience' ...Travis is a 22 year old naive country boy (his own words) in a forest at night. Encounters a flying saucer and gets zapped by a blue light wakes on craft. Heinlean book 'Have Space Suits Will Travel' ...Kip is a 18 year old country boy in a field at night, encounters a flying saucer and gets zapped by a blue light wakes up in craft. Also in 'universe' by Heinlein...A young Hugh discovers a control room on a flying saucer and inside craft there is a seat. Find that seat in Travis account is similar to Kirk's seat in Star Trek and 2001:A Space Odyssey grid screen on the chair.
It's good u r having these chats to help clear up all the BS and clarify things. Absolutely loved listening to u talk about Ur experiences. THANK U SO MUCH BOTH OF U GUYS!!
I felt so bad for Travis during this interview. Such bad questions, it was so cringey and hard to watch him go through this torture. I understand why he hates doing interviews.
Thank you curt. You’re a good man. I’d like to see you interview Sean Kirkpatrick or Steven Greenstreet just for the broad spectrum of thoughts and views so we can compare and contrast the facts. You did fine with LMH btw. Keep it up!
I've known about Travis' experience for many years. I was pleasantly surprised to see him share this story. I've always seen his story as true. I understand the ideas, perceptions and assumptions by others can be off the wall. I admire Travis' patience. Thanks for this interview.
Curt, first time seeing your channel. I am very interested in Travis' story because I also have discovered a CE5 or beyond encounter when I was 6 years old with the same beings in my yard and aboard the craft. My Mother was also involved and remembered the same visit. I was in my room in my house when the beings landed in my front yard and called me telepathically to the window and asked me to come outside with them. They were just little men to me and I was not scared. They were wearing an overall type of suit which was dark and appeared black, but could have been silverish in the light. I began to remember this experience, which happened in 1970 or 1971, because I would wake up in the mornings in 2017 and see the faces of aliens outside my bedroom window of the house we lived in at the time, looking at me. This image kept repeating for several weeks. I was taking care of my Mother who was 80 at the time and cooking for her and going to her house. So, one day, I asked her about aliens at that house in the yard. She nodded and said "yes", and began to tell me what she remembered. We both had our memories wiped somehow and never spoke about it since it happened, but the same details come from both of us and we know it happened. She unfortunately passed away this year in May. I interviewed her on my YT channel and have the link here: ruclips.net/video/ke5aJCUmFbk/видео.html "My Alien 5th Kind Encounter. 3 Greys With Mom Aboard In Front Yard 1971 Houston Flew w/Them." I have had since regression therapy with an expert on passed life regression trained by the Edgar Casey group. She actually went to High School with me and we are still friends now. I have remembered more of that experience through her first session, but the event is still not clear as to what they were teaching me, and why I was sitting at the controls flying the craft as they taught me. I will go back to her until i can get all of the information I can. I need to know what places we were visiting and what they were teaching me. As Travis said, there are certain details and things he said, nuances and phrases, where I know he is telling the truth. I believe a lot of people have these experiences and have not spoken out yet. My YT email is alexaquarius9@gmail.com if you would like to talk and compare my story to other experiencers you know about, so that we can both learn more about these beings, where they come from, and why they do this.
My entire family had terrifying encounters after we moved to Louisiana in 1965. My dad refused to admit it though. By 1988 I could no longer live there even though they gave me to home and farm. And the things followed me after I moved. In 1975 my brother was babysitting me on a Friday night. He went outside at around 11pm to connect our bass boat to the truck for a fishing trip the next morning. He came running back inside in a panic, told me to hide, grabbed a shotgun, and ran back outside. After a little while he came back inside and got me. We went outside and about 300 yards away there was a glowing blue metallic ball above some trees. It would zip back and forth then go down and out of sight in a T pattern. It appeared to be about 15 feet in diameter more or less. He called a friend of his nearby and told him to get a gun and camera ready and we were coming to get him. As soon as we pulled out on the road this thing instantly zipped over and was right above the truck about 20 feet above us. The engine died so we couldn`t drive away. He shoved me down into the floor of the truck and got out and aimed the gun at it. It instantly zipped straight up into the sky and vanished. Nobody answered the door at his friend`s house so we left. We ran into another guy he knew after going down the road closer to where we`d seen it hovering over the trees. The time should have been no later than 15 minutes after midnight but the guy told us it was after 3am. In 1999 I was fishing at night around 11pm on the Louisiana side of the Sabine river. I was just checking a catfishing spot in a bay beside the river with rods because the water was rising and the catfish usually start biting in that area when the river rises. I had planned to get back to the boat dock in our yard before midnight because a TV show I planned to watch was coming on. If the catfish were biting I planned to put out trotlines and hoop nets the next day to catch fish to sell. Right after I tied the boat up and threw out my rods two huge rectangle shaped things way bigger than mobile homes appeared in a cow pasture down the river. They were flying (more like floating) along some power lines,one on either side, and slowly coming towards me. Each of them had four squares of soft yellowish/white light on the front that covered the entire front except for black borders around them. I turned off my light and reeled in my rods, cranked the motor, and started puttering as fast as I could safely go in the dark towards a canal leading back to our boat dock. I had to go towards these things which were slowly coming towards me so I was about to panic. One started going up and the other down as the four square panels of light began to turn into squares inside squares until they became very bright and pretty brilliant sparkling dots of multicolored lights. Then they blinked off and vanished. They never made any sounds. I remember on the way out there while in the canal seeing a very quick flash of colors to my right through the fog in the trees but it was dim and I assumed it came from a spotlight beam on the other side of the island. When I reached the boat dock only minutes later my girlfriend was standing there looking very upset. She told me it was after 5am. It should have been just after 11pm. I never went fishing out there again and I normally fished several times a week.
In every interview the impression I get is this is a man of integrity and always aware of what he feels are fair observations. He never embellishes, deviates or sensationalises his experience and he’s very respectful of the skeptical view. Mainly because I think if he hadn’t had this happen to him he’d be of the same opinion. He’s a very intelligent and credible witness and I’ve always applauded his pragmatic approach. I think he’s a very unique individual and someone from whom we can deepen our understanding of an extraordinary phenomenon.
It's always important to clear the air when talking about this kind of stuff and acknowledging the very legitimate concerns and views of skeptics. I've had multiple UFO sightings, and if ever I bring them up or I'm asked to talk about them, I make it clear that I'm not trying to convert anyone and that I'm just sharing what I saw. I talk about my own skepticism of some of the sightings as well as how I would've reacted to hearing this from someone else had it not happened to me. Unfortunately, there will always be some who just refuse to think it's anything but embellishments, mistaken identity, or lies. I try my best to be respectful yet sincere. I'd be lying if I didn't hold some hope that people might at least consider that my experience was legitimate, regardless of their views on what it was. I have no idea beyond what I saw in the sky and how it made me feel. You won't change anyone's mind or even make them more curious if you don't respect the skeptical point of view, because it IS a very valid point of view. It's the complete unwillingness to hear it and categorically labeling it false on principle that I have objections with. Everyone should question. I've been through my own periods of doubting what I saw with my own eyes with other witnesses. It's natural when confronted with something so mindbogglingly out of the ordinary. These things are still unknown, after all.
@@amphibeingmcshpongletron5026 thanks for your reply. I completely agree. There’s always going to be people who simply won’t listen or have made their mind up. Usually without knowing much about the subject other than what most people see in movies or read in the tabloids. Which is fine. So I think a lot of this is simply down to education and awareness. I’ve had one sighting I can be sure about, although like you, I’m constantly going over it and debating it in my own mind. And I had another experience when I was younger but because of memory and it being so long ago I honestly don’t know what to think about that one. It feels like a dream after all this time and has to be processed through a child’s mind so who knows, but it left a lasting impression on me. As such I’ve been drawn to this topic my whole life. From when I was able to read I was soon getting books from the local library. I don’t tell anyone about it in person. Only four people know, my wife and daughters daughter two close friends. Like many of us who want answers or at least to be able to talk about it without ridicule, I think the most important step we can take is slowly changing the culture and the discourse around UFO’s. Take it out of the hands of paranormal entertainment hacks and into the public domain as a serious subject worthy of our attention.
@@ImNotHereEither Absolutely. I think we're seeing a lot of that positive change in cultural discourse now. There's still a lot that needs to change and even more that we need to learn.
i have to admit Travis is one of the few people I beleive actually had a genuine experience , he is not exaggerating and comes across as a gentle , genuine , intelligent and truthful ...
I truly hope Travis can find the funding for a new movie. I also pray he has A LOT of say regarding the script. I feel Hollywood turned his experience into some horror movie that it was not. He admits to being terrified but he also said he feels these being were possibly trying to undo any harm that came to him as he approached the ship. That’s the movie I want to see. The truth. Thanks Travis for all your interviews. You could walk away from it all, but you don’t trying to get the truth out to the public. ❤️🙏
Curt this was another great one!! You were able to show the humanity and hell these people have to go through just to speak the truth of their experience. This world is way bigger than we’ve been told, we gotta always think bigger
You’re far and away my favorite interviewer in general, but specifically for this phenomenon, and absolutely love your in-depth, extensive preparation for each interviewee. Oh! And thank you for asking thoughtful follow up questions. All the best!
Great interview .Please get Salma Siddick she is one of the witnesses that saw the one of the beings and the craft in the Ariel School sighting in Zimbabwe in 1994.Her description of the event are one of the best.
Fun fact: I was born near where this happened and my dad knew Travis. Don’t know how well he knew him, but it’s a very small community. My parents still live there and I asked my dad a couple weeks ago if he believes the story, and he just said, “I don’t know”. Still not sure how I feel about the case. My brother saw him years later in snowflake. He said that the word around town was that he became much more of a mellow quiet guy after the events. 🤷♂️
He’s right about remote locations and no light pollution.travis said the area was prone to a lot of lightning strikes, lightning strikes produce radiation.
This was a good one. I feel terrible for Travis. I get his hesitation. Dude's been burned alive by so many people wanting to use him for money or to discredit him. Shit has got to hurt. I am thankful he's still out there telling his story. I really don't know how to think about UFO's and alien abductions. But I've always believed Travis's story. Also the video was taken down as I was watching. Now I've got to wait a whole day to find out how aliens walk! I need to speak to a manager.
So true, i feel bad for the guy. He must have been paraded around by fools and targeted by assholes. I for one DO NOT WANT TO GET ABDUCTED!! because I won't be able to keep quiet and people will kill me for lieing 😂!
Yes, I agree. Unlike Bob Lazar…where there are some doubts, Travis Walton has courageously stepped out in front of the inquisition and has confirmed his story. His words are carefully measured as he cannot afford to misspeak.
Yeah poor him, he’s famous, possibly making money off this experience alone, was lucky enough to get abducted and see the inside of an alien ship when other fanatics spend their WHOLE LIFE just trying to get a glimpse but yeah trauma! And this is coming from someone who’s experienced much trauma but I CHOOSE to face it instead of run from it because running from it only intensifies the trauma. I may sound insensitive and I really don’t care but people need to step out of their identities for a minute so they won’t be so blinded inside the bubble of their identity… Now I await the inevitable angry people who don’t understand my point and wanna be super defensive over traumatized people and no fucking wonder the issues continue because traumatized people don’t have the balls to face it. I only care about truth. When you give people the room to respect and polish that trauma, this shit will never get resolved.
*I was basically screaming like a crazy man, and that's nothing that encourages conversation* Hahaha. That had me rolling. Great dude, and great interview!
There's so much potential in making a psychological drama film focusing on Travis's alien abduction and its backlash, can you imagine a modern movie with a good and accurate depiction with a good director? If it's real, it's real. No matter how outlandish.
"For advanced consciousness, telepathy is inevitable." I hope you're right. But I also hope we dont lose that warmth that comes from facial and body expression.
@@sovpsyche5427 na man... something much much stronger. A couplek of muscle relaxers and Xanax. Had a feeling past 2 days that I was ill. Muscle pain confirmed it was covid and no ordinary fever. So yes I needed this ;)
Thank you both for this story and assessment of an abduction memory. I have high compassion for him for all the negativity he faces. Hopefully soon it will come to light and he can be vindicated and accepted. We have government documents which now verify knowledge about the existence of craft that is otherworldly. I admire you for your tenacity in trying to understand deeper and connecting the dots.
I too was abducted several years ago, I had a checkers board with me and challenged the commander of the ufo to play a 2 out of 3 match if I should win I would be released if not the aliens could do there experiments he agreed and the game was on I lost the first game but rallied to win the next 2, and being a man of his word he let me go some how nobody believes me what do you think?
I want to not believe him so bad for some reason (even though I believe in the recent UFO activities) but he really comes off as someone who TRULY believes his version of events. Hard to argue that.
My fav podcast. Unlike most others you keep an open mind and imo you ask the best questions. Other podcasters will get a great guest on and just miss opportunity after opportunity to dig in deeper with certain questions. You're very analytical and thorough and that results in little to no stones left unturned. Keep up the awesome work brother 👍👍
Thank you for having the courage to come forward with your story all these years Travis! And as for Theories of everything, love your channel and all the great people your bringing forward! Really doing great things for humanity in my eyes! Not a doubt in my mind of any of the topics talked about on your channel! True believer! 💚✨
Travis Walton you have an amazing spirit. I want you to know that I have NEVER doubted your experience. Stay strong and never change who you are. Hugs and love sent your way. ❤🦋
TOTAL RESPECT FOR U TRAVIS. U are a brave man, and I appreciate Ur total transparency about Ur experiences. It's also great to hear it all again straight from the horses mouth, and all in one place. Rather than retold, possibly getting facts mistaken etc. I've had a few experiences over the past nearly 34 years since the first that I remember, being about 7 or 8 I think. Then end of last year, in fact prob about every decade, one not being a ufo.
I think the questions about his unborn baby were rude and uncalled for Curt. They were intrusive and without consideration for what is obviously a traumatic event. You didn't even offer your condolences, nor express any empathy for his feelings. I was shocked by your callous approach. Travis was kind enough to try and answer your question, but they became more and more... Intrusive.. really disappointed in you for that, you are normally a decent interviewer
I agree with you. That whole line of questioning was uncomfortable to watch.
Agreed, the interviewer is a tool. I put this on to go to sleep, and when I heard that part I got up and turned my head to the monitor like did he really just ask him that?
The kid is socially awkward.
So impressed with Travis. He has lived through a very difficult life so far, and is surviving. May he be blessed.
Yass, amen sis.
@@bongochicken8681 Moron detected.
100%
Travis is one of the most humble people I've ever seen interviewed, who had gone through such an ordeal. I truly value this interview, thank you for giving Travis respect and treating him well!
Showing respect, not GIVING.
I was expecting detailed questioning about his abduction experience. I’d literally have so many questions about his abduction we’d all be able to envision it
I feel so sorry for him that even people in the comments here are ridiculing him. I mean everyone who does research on this story should know that it would be a very hard story to hoax. And you can really see that in their faces, that these men went through a difficult experience.
@@JohnnyBoy144 He created a book which gives every detail there is. It's worth the money. You have to get it from his website. Also, there is a long section in the book where he responds the the skeptics when they attacked him back then. Mainly Philip Klass.
Oh damn! Thanks man, I'll look for it!@@quatermass8
Few years ago i had an encounter while on a canoe camping trip with my son, it was about 3.30am and ide crawled out the tent to take a leak, there wasn`t a cloud in the sky, it was pitch black but you could see every star in the sky from this field we`d camped in, as i walked towards a few bushes i felt something like a static charge and i looked about and for a split second i saw a bluey green light just above me, reminded me of what a plasma discharge looks like from a tesla coil, i looked straight up above my head and saw a distortion in the sky, i could still see the stars but it was like i was looking at them in the reflection in water, they shimmered, only way i can describe it it was like the predator when he engages his invisibility device, this distortion was moving real slow, eventually it passed over head and as i looked more at it and the further it got away it started to see a solid object, eventually i saw a leading edge to a disk shaped object, it looked like brushed tin or pewter, no sound at all apart from a gentle hum which i could feel in my chest, like you do at a rock concert when the bass kicks in, there was no engine exhaust, no rotors or ailerons or anything you`d identify as an aircraft, it was seamless and looked like it was injection moulded from 1 piece, i guess it travelled about half a mile away from me, over the river we`d canoed down that day and all of a sudden it shot up vertically that fast ide say within 2 seconds it looked like just another star, this was in the UK at a place called Ironbridge near telford, i`ll never forget that as long as i live
Great story thx for sharing.
Thx for sharing.
They definitely shoot straight up
Thanks for sharing your story, I enjoyed it very much.
He is a humble person and the experience he describes is riveting. It's not easy to recall such trauma, regardless of whether or not his experience was tangible, physically verifiable or based in waking reality, it is clearly real to the interviewee and for that we owe him much respect.
Thanks Travis for answering some very difficult and hard questions, appreciate it and for trying to be as open as possible in this interview, best one I've seen yet
I don't appreciate this man telling all of our secrets, how can we as aliens molest you humans when guys like this go around telling our perverted stories.
This is definitely not right.
they could have been phrased more empathetically - they didn't need to be as hard as he asked them
@Mike Remington Agreed. His interview style is anything but empathic and in my opinion shows no ability as an interviewer to connect to the person being interviewed. There was a distinct lack of rapport. That's too bad because when you create a rapport, you help the subject of the interview relax and that elicits more trust and ultimately more information. I feel like anyone could have read the questions he had prepared and produced the same (or better) results.
@@mremington8 Travis seems to be pretty tuff. A lesser man would checked out. I also have friends with Curts matter of fact demeanor. They seem to lack the ability to form a deeper connection than most. Nothing mean or disrespectful intended.
@@eekoeek1 Typical "murican" statement. It is not other countries that are un-devoted or disrespectful or blah blah, it is you "muricans" who are always like the princess complaining about that pea she can feel under 12 matresses. Either you love everything and everyone ,or you hate everything or everyone. A completely ravaged nation
I wanted to enjoy this interview, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel slightly uncomfortable/annoyed while watching it. You came across annoyed and stand-off ish whenever Travis didn’t answer some of your questions, or if he got distracted. I feel in some parts you were even insensitive. I get that you’re curious and want answers, but I suggest having more humility towards people you’re interviewing, especially if they had an experience they keep claiming terrified/traumatized them.
I had the pleasure of spending a day at a MUFON conference where Travis Walton was one of the speakers, I have spent over 20 years researching his case. He was one of the most humble nonattention seeking intelligent persons I have ever met and for anyone who actually looks at the real facts of his case there can be no doubt he is telling the truth about his amazing experience! I personally admire him for having the courage to tell the truth despite all the personal abuse he has suffered through the years and from all the debunkers who have made up countless lies and attempts to smear him. May G-d bless Travis Walton!
This poor man. As a young girl I had a bit of a crush lo!. I have been interested in this case, and the topic in general, more so since my last experience about ten years ago. Before that I didn't know what I'd been seeing . he is such a strong person, I'd love to know what he means by having personal paranormal experiences and other experiences that he has kept to himself, because he couldn't document them. I've had some weird things happen , so I assume this would b that phenomenon that continues with people, there's a word for it, I can't think of it right now though. But many who have had experiences have other Things happen too oh ok its called the hitchhiker effect, I just remembered. Lol.
Hmmm he’s also a millionaire right?
Everyone who meets a person of “celebrity status” says the same BS all the time. “I met him in person and he was nice for ten minutes therefore he is incapable of any wrong”. Bro he said to his mother before he was abducted “if I get abducted by aliens soon don’t worry I’ll be back”. And his buddy who told the tale with him came forward recently saying he was lying. Walton is making this up. They passed their lie detector test being asked if there was any foul play in Walton’s disappearance. Walton did not pass his lie detector test about the incident and the dude even noted “he was holding his breath trying to cheat”. Let it go
@@_TheDarkHalf ...
Your internet "handle" says everything about you that people need to know, son.
@@TheMid-KnightRider it’s a movie shallow bastard.
I see an extremely traumatized human being. Traumatized by the experience itself and because of the ridicule following it. Thank you Curt and Travis for this experince.
Travis isn’t extremely traumatized. He was initially and for several years after, however he’s the only living Alien Abduction experiencer who’s story has never been debunked. He’s also an extremely healthy individual who hasn’t been sick a day in his life since. If people think he’s different, he is. He experienced something very few people live to tell.
Travis had one hell of an Acid trip simple as that abducted by Aliens 😂 give me a break
@@johnmoffat5782 he took acid whilst working with a logging crew,the 6 lads he worked with saw the glowing orb too,gimme a break😂😂
The most ridiculous on paper for me personally. However, the fact that his friends were being looked at as murderers and they didn't recant says alot. People normally break for less.
I agree to an extent, he doesn’t come across as actively traumatized but definitely still living with something. When he recounts the experience you can see in his body language and face that he’s reliving what he went through to an extent. It leads me to believe him, not to mention the other witnesses and evidence. A chilling event. No doubt I believe him when he says he should have never gotten out of the truck.
This interview made me like Travis even more, and I was a fan early on already. This is what people used to call a “straight shooter”. He’s been through so much, still tells the same story, understands a LOT about other people and doesn’t want to be a celebrity in any level.
Great interview- well prepared and the even level and respectful way of questioning seemed to help Travis settle in for a serious and helpful meeting.
Poor man, he seems traumatized from public degradation. It's really not cool how close-minded us humans can be. Travis, if you ever see this, I hope you know that most people now will treat you kindly. Therapy can be immensely helpful.
Travis is 1000% the real deal.....not only him but the whole crew passed the best lie detector tests at the time, passed money down which at that time was a very large amount. Travis you are a trooper amongst troopers....a hero among heroes.....you never ever sold out nor ever even compelled it, too me you Travis are one hell of a stand up character both in your moral compass and you being who you are. Stay well and healthy too all you and all your family my friend. Take care all the way from Halifax Nova Scotia Canada!
Is that close to shag Harbor?
@@stephenhurd1489 ya not far at all...we go there every few years just cause it's such a wicked story and has been proven over and over.
LOL 🤣 SMH
The truth of the testimonies is their experiences. It does not give them any clues about how nature works or who the abducto..s were. This is the problem of how most people jump to conclusions about subjects they don't have the int..lect to comprehend.
Real deal but made by humans to fake it…, dr Greer explains this
Curt, not only am I fascinated by these UFO/UAP interviews but I just noticed how much work you put into your videos, so much great info on an interesting topic that’s seeming to be fantasy becoming reality and you are at the forefront of all this info. Keep up the great work!
I really appreciate this comment. Curt’s podcast. Well said!
Another great interview Curt. I found your way of questioning and the way you managed the flow of the interview really helped to keep Travis engaged and focused on specifics. I do feel sorry for Travis, in the sense that he clearly has been accused of falsifying his case so many times that on a few occasions I think he may have confused some of your questions as accusations. That’s obviously understandable. However, it’s clear to the audience that you certainly didn’t challenge his views or accuse him of lying or making things up at all. You were very understanding and inclusive in your manner of speech. Keep it up. Your personable attitude towards your guests will make your channel grow for sure.
Thank you man, I'm so glad to hear that.
Yes,you are thoughtful to not be taking his moments where he sounded a little angry,personally. Many of us are finding your interviews quite wonderful! Thank you so much!
This is a great interview. I’m glad you pushed him on providing details.
I am speechless that you managed to speak with Travis Walton about his experience. I hope he also apreciates speaking about it and i wish him all the best for his ongoing life. Thank you both for sharing this with us ❤️
Thank you for talking to us Mr. Walton. I really appreciate you doing interviews like this. It’s awful you have to relive the trauma by answering so many questions again, but you’re so gracious to do so. Thanks again.🙏🏼
It was a tough interview in places, which is most likely due to the trauma of Travis' experience. Thank you so much for your gentle tenacity and many thanks to Travis for his candid and interesting testimony of this very harrowing subject for him. Thank you once again!
Maybe....
Lol. Trauma? He’s written books sold the rights to Hollywood. The guy has a booth sit up at ufo enthusiasts gathering where you can pay for a picture. Oh the trauma.
@oldironsides4107 What would you suggest? That he curl up in a ball in a closet somewhere and never speak to anyone again? For some, facing trauma by engaging it, writing & talking about, is helpful. What about all the survivors of abuse, or war, or any number of other things, who go on to speak publicly, to write, to share? Should they just hide themselves away too? Just food for thought x
You don’t think it could have anything to do with him lying?
I like this guy Travis. He seems like a good enough soul and I believe he experienced the trauma he describes. It is a bit sad Travis wishes it never happened and it hasn't on balance been a positive experience. Also, Curtis did a great job in the interview. It felt a little awkward at times, but, unlike other interviewees, Curtis didn't fall into the temptation of talking about himself or his life or his experiences, and kept if very unemotional, and I think as a result new information has come to light. Great interview and a fascintating subject.
I commend you Travis for your willingness, candor and generosity in sharing your experiences; especially considering the more difficult aspects of doing so. I believe you wholeheartedly; and I'm very disaapointed you face such negativity and blowback from others. I hope you're able to remake the film as you see fit; if so, you will certainly have my support at the box office and beyond.
Thank you Curt for hosting in such a professional, direct yet considerate manner; and for including the audience members.
Blessings to you both, and yours.
Travis Walton is a class act and a global treasure!! Surviving everything that he had to and then emerging as a statesman speaks volumes about the man. I would have rid myself of the whole wide world if I were him. So I never tire of hearing him speak with such calm and profound wisdom. We’re lucky to have him around and speaking out for awakening the mainstream consciousness. Thanks a million to both Travis and Curt for this great session 🙏🏻 ❤️
Travis does talk credibly, much like the Navy pilots who see UAPs talk credibly. I hope extraterrestrials give us some physical evidence of their existence soon.
Except it's a load of horse shit, lol.. he's a lying fake
@@rodstarcke5423 I believe they have, even though it has been denied throughout the years by people in the know. There have been encounters with tens of thousands of witnesses. The Phoenix Lights incident looks like it could have been a way for the phenomena to make their own disclosure, but once again, that was covered up as well. There were just so many credible witnesses, and many of them were disgusted by the response of our military and government officials, as well as with the media. We could be so much further along, if they just let it come out.
Love how you manage to get the people to come across just by letting them talk. Well done sir.
Thank you, Travis for letting Curt interview you for us. I am a fellow believer that has had 2 close encounters in my 72 years . Late Summer 1977 ,at night, along the deserted beach in Michigan City, Indiana (Lake Michigan shoreline) which my dog ,Kahlua, alerted me to. Again in a potato field at night a few miles outside LaPorte ,Indiana (my hometown) with my friend ,Ed, while we searched for pot plants during the Winter of 1980-1981.(We were stone sober in the cold early Winter night.) Mufon has my detailed experiences online. Each close encounter was within 150 feet of observation. You are not alone Travis in your beliefs. I /We were not abducted but I am sure we could have easily been. I wish to let people know that I am sure Travis did experience a rare once in a lifetime event after experiencing my sightings close at hand and with my dog and a friend. I have since realized that we as a world are of very little significance in the Universe on the grand scale of things. The governments are hiding factual truths about visitations whether they are us from our own future (time travel), beings from another plane or dimension beside ours, or alien life forms that may have been here for decades since the detonations of our first atomic bombs or earlier. Think outside the box on possibilities of more advanced technologies and civilizations other than ours. Look how far we on earth have advanced in just the last 100 years from the first cars, biplanes, and electric light bulb use. Imagine a civilization that has been around 5000 years without wars and starvation but leap frogged in science and medicines and social ways. We are not alone and if we are, it would be a mistake.
I was abducted at the beginning of the year. There is nothing worse then talking to people and needing someone to understand and having everyone think your crazy. Its such a traumatizing event that your entire perception of time is changed and you feel truly crazy. I ended up getting amnesia and losing my ability to talk for almost a month. It changed me for the rest of my life.
Can you please tell us more ? Im sorry youre feeling this way . And wow ... the world is not what weve been told it is ..
My default is to trust people and take them at face value. Its sad that we trust each other less than we should.
You are believed ❤
That could be but this is just a statement. Witnesses?
full of shit
It's been wonderful to get to watch you go down the UFO rabbithole, Curt! Stay open-minded, stay rational and stay curious brother!
When BOB LAZAR??? would be the best interview EVER in mho
Rogan has the best lazar interview
I agree.
@Ken Stanaford ok cool dude nobody really cares what u think enjoy ur day
4 sure
@Ken Stanaford yea nobody really cares dude enjoy your miserable day
Travis seems pretty level headed. I think people should allow him to finish his human experience without inflecting there thoughts on what happened, he is intelligent, and very wise to what happened to him. Peace and light Travis.
I thought this too!
My theory on the greys size. They come from a super earth, or a planet larger than ours. They are smaller due to the increased gravity, all animals there are smaller. They operate at night, as there star is either more distant or not as bright/energetic (which is good, no coronal mass ejections to wipe them out early). So they prefer to operate in low light, twilight, or night. Also they are not interested in being observed and avoid large pop centers usually, so the cover of night, knowing humans cant see very well at night, is also an opportunity.
It's good that you detected Travis's skepticism avoidance and addressed it openly. I think it really helped smooth out the conversation and take his walls down a little bit.
I appreciate your honesty and courage and resilience in surviving this event and speaking publicly about it. My heart hurts for you because I can tell how frustrating and painful it is when people are asking such pointed memory questions and memory is so profoundly affected by trauma and stress (as well as injury). Just because you can’t draw them picture perfect recall doesn’t mean anything… if you put anyone under stress into an unfamiliar setting and later asked them to describe and draw the details, they’d be shocked how much they can’t actually recall. Many people aren’t going to believe no matter what, but for those who have had their own confusing experiences but don’t feel able to speak out you’re a true hero. For those who are exploring this topic with an open mind this interview is another solid piece of evidence that deserves their attention.
Thank you, Curt, for all of the work you do! Truly amazing. You do the homework above and beyond as well as treat people the way you would want, if not expect, to be treated. The level of professionalism is a true breath of fresh air. It is also heartening to find a Physicist/Scientist with excitement and enthusiasm for the possibility of learning new, almost impossible facets of all sciences to come!!
Thank you Curt for another amazing interview. Mr. Walton has a incredible story that's for sure!
I cant even imagine the paradigm shift and PTSD that he has had to have gone through, because of his experience. Then he has had all of the experiences with skeptics, debunkers and even those that knew he was being truthful, and still chose to deny the truth to the public. The man has been through hell and back, and still maintains the same story, all of these years later. I have so much respect for him speaking his truth. I can tell that certain questions bother him, but again, I can't even imagine what he has already endured, and because of the intense scrutiny and criticism, he is understandably reluctant to answer some questions. Thank you so much for this interview. You did an amazing job.
Travis Walton's experience was very real along with Betty and Barney Hill in 1961. These are the ones that can never be debunked by the authorities because there is too much evidence
When people stop being curious about the unknown that's when humanity stops evolving.
Thank you for being curious 👍
Totally agree with that, but you have to admit there's also a problem with people not being skeptical enough. I sure want to be open-minded, but think it's important to also be skeptical.
@@dannyvanhecke Of course...we need to ask questions and we need to listen before we make up our minds...not the other way around
@@t.c9537 After reading the rationalwiki page about Travis Walton I was skeptical, but he does come across as pretty intelligent. So maybe the issue is more that rationalwiki is TOO skeptical and cynical.
@@dannyvanhecke It's always better to hear it straight from the horse's mouth...stories always changes a little with every person who retells it...things are added and misunderstood and often the story gets a touch of the person who retells it
@@t.c9537 The problem is that there are many scam artists and delusional people... so that makes it difficult to separete them from people who're actually honest and sane.
Thanks for having Travis. I have followed him from the beginning. I don't think his life has been easy since his experience. Maybe I got it wrong but he seems to have just accepted his notoriety and made the best of it. It doesn't seem like to many who have similar experiences have enhanced lives.
Yes, I agree. Travis has handled this all very well knowing that some (many)’are not persuaded. His sincerity comes across.
Travis seems so sad. This incident will trouble him til the end. God bless him. I hope he does have happiness in his life. ❤
Yo the guy asking the questions be more passionate and bond with this guy… it’s so easy to tell you don’t give af how this make him feel about opening up to you… you’re just asking questions after questions ..not even saying like “I feel your pain my heart goes out to you..SOMETHING” Travis seems so genuine and you’re hammering him with questions without connecting..JUST SOME WORD OF ADVICE
Bro 100%! Curt is so cold and seems he only cares about getting his answers. He never smiles or makes Travis feel comfortable in any way. I'm amazed at all the comments about how good curt did at interviewing Travis. More like an interrogation if you ask me. I felt for Travis the entire interview , it deff could of been a little less harsh. He didn't even say thank you at the end he just said "ok, take care and that's it.....
I think if you had taken the time to research Travis’ experience and maybe gotten to know him a bit before this long form interview, it would have been better for Travis.
I worry that after this he will be less inclined to do interviews with new people. He’s been gawked at for 46 years. Either you believe him or you don’t.
Maybe having moderators who can flag/send you the best questions from the chat would help. Some of the questions were thoughtless and expecting him to recall specific and mundane details (like wanting to know specific details about the ramp) that have nothing to do with his experience wasted a lot of time.
And the question about his moustache was ridiculous.
Also be familiar with the story first and know he was presented by hollywood as naked in the phone booth
Oh boy, what a treat. My favourite UFO abductee and one of the very few whose story I accept as legitimate. Thank you for this and good to see Travis doing well.
Travis Walton - The First & Historic Interview

ruclips.net/video/ovSFord8U_M/видео.html
He's been pretty consistent from what I've seen. I tend to look for logical inconsistencies, whether they change their story and just overall vibe and I haven't see anything with him yet. Plus a few of them passed the lie detector.
I love Travis and believed him 100% from the first time I heard his experience years ago.
Dumb#ss !
Dude, your interview skills, cmon man, i kind of felt bad for Travis here- this seemed more like a police interrogation rather than an empathetic collaborative exchange between two adults. you probably should find a career where you dont have to interact with other humans.
Travis was asked questions submitted by others. If he had objected, Curt would have moved on.
He has to read his notes below.. and questions .he tells the guest usually before it starts..
I was kinda getting the same vibe like an interrogation or debriefing. I'm sure it's unintentionally.
Same i feel bad for Travis 😢
I know what you mean, but we need to consider the subject matter, this is for want of a better word ‘alien’ to us all. Personally I’ve never been convinced by this guy, but I do believe in aliens, etc I’m more convinced by lazar, j fravour
Curt’s becoming my fav interviewer for UFO folks. He has this “chutzpah” (in a good way) that enables him to ask uncomfortable questions and persist until the guest answers or at least acknowledges the question. Almost in kind of an “autism-spectrumy” type way lol 😂 (I mean that in a positive way)... blunt and direct. And if there seems to be an inconsistency in something a guest says, he doesn’t just breeze past it like George Noory or any other interviewer does... he doesn’t move on until the guest clarifies. I LOVE it.
I sent your Luis Elizondo video to several people, and they all agreed it’s by far the best Lue interview they’ve ever heard. It had NEW information. Usually, every Lue interview is the same... same questions... same answers... once you watch a few, you’ve watched them all. But Curt (and the chat) got _new_ info out of Lue.
Thanks Curt Russel! We love you!
I thought the same thing in terms of autism-spectrum type of way. Nothing against it but there were some responses that almost seemed rude and dismissive of the situation. I thought I was the only one. He definitely has a way different style of interviewing people compared to others
I like how Curt drills in for more details, I get frustrated in lots of interviews where oh this guy was in a craft not of human origin. So, what was the material like? Are there any shapes in the corner of the ceiling? What are the angles of the line? What was the temperature? Im looking at you Joe Rogan Bob Lazar interview.
I totally agree with you, although at first I thought it was aloofness on his part and didn't particularly like him/his interviews. I'm so glad I stuck with him though, as I soon realised my first impression was totally based on my own biases and prejudices. Your description of Curt and his interview style is nailed on. He's now become my favourite interviewer and TOE is my favourite podcast
I agreed 100%. It's why I keep watching.
You're absolutely right. He does a great job here of persisting when Travis is being vague and evasive. In doing so, he has exposed Travis as someone with a very unconvincing story, full of holes and inconsistencies. I'm 100% sure now that the "abduction" of Travis never happened.
I think you should try to let the guests talk a bit at the beginning about new projects, their experiences, just random stuff, rather than just Q & A from jump. Also , importantly try to connect with the guests, develop a rapport. Like when you asked the Mustache question it was funny and cool and you got a few laughs out of TW. On some Q and A’s you seem distant and cold. I think it would help you out tremendously. But as always you do a great job. Keep it up.
Even if a well known story give them 30m to cover the basics, and do your questions accordingly
Well said. I fully agree.
Love your guests and videos, man!
I agree with this insightful comment, you could definitely try to break the ice with your guests (at the start of the interviews and throughout, it'd help them feel comfortable and more free to talk/expound if they felt really welcome and heard by you. Love your vids, but can sometimes feel stiff, awkward, a bit cold. You got this bro, keep it up!
If curt allows people to stick to their base story, we don’t get responses from the heart. It’s great how it is, it’s clunky at time because the guests don’t expect to be intellectually questioned.
@DogMan maybe I did so what? The format can be a lot better and so can the interview but Curt is on the ball and always getting better. 2 things can be true.
My brother has a small ranch in Northern Arizona. There is a lot of strange things in that area. In fact there is a small canyon that we spent the night in several times with repeated experiences that we are yet to explain. Travis’s story is as solid a story that there is.
Do you mind sharing some details of those experiences/ encounters?
Find in Travis book 'The Walton Experience' ...Travis is a 22 year old naive country boy (his own words) in a forest at night. Encounters a flying saucer and gets zapped by a blue light wakes on craft.

it was a hoax.
@@dindjarin7185 trying to read your comment was so frustrating.
@@jasonolinger7585 your name is frustrating
Problem with Curt is that sometimes he comes across as a bit rude, interrupting abruptly at the end of people talking. He should have more emotion and tact in these questions. Not such an obtrusive manner about him just because he wants certain questions answered. Other times he does well, and looks intensely interested and gives people time to talk. Just not entirely consistent.
It is unfortunate so many questions are asking for insights beyond what he's shared before. When anyone is in a state of tremendous trauma, the mind doesn't allow for clear perceptions. High levels of the endorphins adrenalin or cortisol interfere with a wide variety of mental clarity, including detailed memory. I'm impressed with Travis' patience. He clearly seems somewhat stressed base on facial expressions. I've met Travis at a local talk he gave, and found him to be very authentic, sincere and open.
same. profoundly sincere, solid and no BS individual.
Because he’s lying!!!!
@@XRATEQ He's aging dont forget. So he might recount things incorrectly. The only thing I'm aware of that outwardly stands out a bit too off is on the Joe Rogan podcast he said they have pupils and here he gives in the impression he didnt see pupils. (or rather outwardly admits he didnt see pupils) You'd be amazed how wrong you can remember something that happened but very incorrectly. But yes the pupil thing has definitely made me more skeptical.
@@XRATEQ I'm curious to know what country you were born in and are currently living. Because of how much you believe hes lying.
@@johndor7793 Nobody has ever been abducted by aliens!!
This was a very interesting though difficult interview. Curtis, I truly appreciate your direct questions and kindness. I'm so sorry that Travis has had such a terrible time. I'm really enjoying your RUclips channel. Such interesting people.
This must have been a very difficult conversation on both sides, Curt, but you really seemed to do the best you could to navigate it. Well done to you both.
You are doing great work Curt. So many great guest speakers on UFO- related topics. I’m sure you are learning a lot from each one, and given your high intelligence and education, at this rate you will inevitably become an expert on the subject yourself.
Love to know how this guy gets such good interviews crazy. To have Travis Walton on here is amazing what a show. Brilliant work
Thank you. The answer is mainly luck.
Some people say they would rather be Lucky than Good, I'd say you're both!
@@TheoriesofEverything Must check your eyes
I believe his thorough, detailed line of questioning and his lack of ego or agenda are factors. I am delightfully impressed with Curt!
I understand Travis and his hesitation…back in 2005 while living in ft lauderdale I experienced a close encounter (a saucer type flying ship flew over my head not higher than 7 feet over the ground while I was lying down watching the stars) that changed my life but I have zero proof other than my call to nuforc and subsequent report and also the fact earlier another person had a similar encounter in satellite beach which I found out much much later…these encounters are so extraordinary that you barely recall details because your whole body mind and soul are in a state of shock…
I'm envious, my uncle had a similar experience where a craft hovered a few feet infront of his truck.
I keep my eyes on the sky and only catch glimpses but I still have plenty of time here. I hope anyway

Hats off to you Curt for a respectful interview you are a young dude and just your willingness to give Travis this.opportunity speaks volumes as to your character!...Thanks Curt
I couldn't believe it when he talked about the black triangle over the car. Happened to me as well in Brisbane, Australia. I don't remember where I was going to, where I was coming from, who was in the car with me or any other memory prior or after the incident though I remember exactly where I saw it because of the direction the craft was moving to after being over the car. It was about 2-30 ft above the car. I remember seeing a red magenta central light and piping structures on the hull. As it moved slowly over the car into a netball field that was next to us, I could feel the air vibrating like waves as the craft moved. I wish I could go back to that moment and relive it because once you have an experience like that, you really start questing yourself.
I am really enjoying your content on UFOs. I want to thank Travis for being willing to come do this long form interview.
Keep it up TOE. KEEP GOING UNTIL PHYSICS CANT DENY METAPHYSICS AND Consciousness
What a genuine humble guy. I feel for him. You can tell it has had massive ramifications on him. I truly wish him all the best & good fortune in the future 🙏
Travis is a brave man to speak of his experience and open himself up to these hostile attacks by those who want to discredit him. It's not like he's getting rich from the disclosure. He is a generous courageous and kind soul to share his traumatic experience .
Great interview, Curt got great information from Travis. You can’t listen to Travis’s sober, humble, and considered story, without believing him, he could have hidden from all the doubters, but he has simply told the story, of something amazing and frightening that happened to him. A courageous fellow indeed

I’ve heard of this Ufo story threw my tablet.It’s too bad that Travis Walton got so traumatized by this incident!It must’ve been terriable to go threw?I also saw the incident threw drawing’s,way back in 2015.There was a narrator on it,I believe?I’ve also seen other Ufo 🛸 stories threw the internet.My Uncle saw a Ufo 🛸 fly down when he was alive during the summer of 1984.My dad had told me about it,before he had passed away.My Uncle saw a ship that came down from the sky,a door opened up in the Ufo,and two other light’s came out.After that,the Ufo 🛸 shot straight up in the sky,along with the two light’s.I kept this a secret,until I told a friend of my mom’s.I never told anyone else about this incident.Peace to you,Travis!😊😊😊😊😊
For anyone interested in more from Travis, he was on Art Bell's show and it is here on RUclips. I have followed this subject for my entire life and have had my own experiences. I believe Travis and in the U.F.O. phenomenon.
Edit: Thank you Curt for what you're doing for this topic. I also have to say I do feel bad for Travis. He's so reluctant to just speak about things because of how he's been treated prior. I wish him the best.
I think this interview has finally exposed Travis' story as being untrue. He uses all sorts of excuses to avoid answering questions - but Curt doesn't let him off the hook and we can see that Travis is just making his story up. A great interview.
@@Midwinter2 You might very well be right. This is a story I've grown up with and fully admit I've never been critical of. I honestly have no insight into the credibility of his claims. Truth is, I want to believe it and am smart enough to know what that does to my interpretation. I respect your assessment and welcome it. I've been wrong many times and could very well be wrong here. With or without Travis, there's something going on and we should all be paying close attention to it. Thanks for giving me pause.
@@jpvielleux just want to say that's an excellent response.
@@jpvielleux Well, thanks for your gracious and rational response. I've been interested in this story since I saw the movie based on Travis' story, "Fire in the Sky" - way back when it was released. It had a very powerful impact on me - I was gripped and terrified by it.
I know exactly what you mean about wanting it to be true. I've been there. But in recent years I've converted to Carl Sagan's doctrine: extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
So I enjoy the tall tales about UFOs - I am intrigued by them, and they fire my imagination. But when it comes to believing the claims, I need evidence - and it has to be evidence at a level that meets the level of the claim. The claims of people like Travis and Bob Lazar are utterly astounding and world-changing. They're wonderful stories - but they need some serious evidence for me to believe them.
Mind you, even before we can consider any evidence, I find the accounts of both Travis and Bob Lazar to be of poor quality and unconvincing. Neither appears to be relating a genuine, lived experience. Their descriptions are vague where you would expect them to be specific and detailed. Both men are evasive and full of excuses as to why they can't give straight answers to simple questions.
@@Midwinter2 I used to believe Lazar but no longer do. I think Travis is making it up as well for the reasons you list.
Big fan. Thanks for the great interview. A lot to like about this channel.
I don’t buy it
No ones selling you anything 😂
Great job Curt! As a person who is very familiar with PTSD I can tell you that Travis appears to be suffering from it still. The ease with which he appeared to become agitated is very much a symptom of PTSD. I wonder if he has ever tried EMDR? This is an interesting therapy for PTSD which appears to work exceptionally well. He would very likely benefit from it. I say this in case this can be brought to his attention, not to criticize, but to help. I really appreciate your interviewing skills and subject matter across the board!
I know of 3 abductees. One of them I knew well enough to believe his story. His experience was brief: he saw a UFO overhead, then lost about 20 minutes of memory and came to in a snow bank near the place he had been standing. His father also had experiences with UFOS. I never talked to his father, only learned of that from my sister. The other person's experiences began in childhood. The two people I spoke with did seem to be somewhat disturbed in recalling their experiences but did not have PTSD. The 3rd person that I know of but do not know personally does not want to discuss his experience, but is otherwise normal.
What is EMDR?? I am interested in this??? Please explain. Thank you.
@@samdanner6806 Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy treatment that was originally designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories
Thank you Elijah for your explanation.
I have extensive experience with EMDR specifically for treatment of PTSD. I thought the exact same thing in regards to his very obvious trauma. EMDR made a profound change in my ability to deal with my own traumatic experience in my life and I would hope Travis could receive some relief in the same manner.
This is by far the best interview with Travis I have ever viewed, thank you for being REAL on this Curt.
This one is good but there is one more that's really good too. I think the interview was done by that ex wrestler guy whose name I can't remember right now. Anyway I think that's the one where he describes a lot more of what he witnessed inside the ship.

It's good u r having these chats to help clear up all the BS and clarify things. Absolutely loved listening to u talk about Ur experiences. THANK U SO MUCH BOTH OF U GUYS!!
I felt so bad for Travis during this interview. Such bad questions, it was so cringey and hard to watch him go through this torture. I understand why he hates doing interviews.
He was victim of the black rogue projects dr Greer talks about, poor guy
The questions were good.
It's not a given that it actually happened, sorry but he has to really be questioned , no fluff
So glad I listen to Travis...he is the real deal...Thanks for coming forward.
Thank you curt. You’re a good man. I’d like to see you interview Sean Kirkpatrick or Steven Greenstreet just for the broad spectrum of thoughts and views so we can compare and contrast the facts. You did fine with LMH btw. Keep it up!
I've known about Travis' experience for many years. I was pleasantly surprised to see him share this story. I've always seen his story as true.
I understand the ideas, perceptions and assumptions by others can be off the wall.
I admire Travis' patience. Thanks for this interview.
Kurt: Bulbasaur
Travis: Say again?? :-/
Another great interview Kurt! you are killing it! Can't wait for Skinwalker Ranch please!
Lol
Curt, first time seeing your channel. I am very interested in Travis' story because I also have discovered a CE5 or beyond encounter when I was 6 years old with the same beings in my yard and aboard the craft. My Mother was also involved and remembered the same visit. I was in my room in my house when the beings landed in my front yard and called me telepathically to the window and asked me to come outside with them. They were just little men to me and I was not scared. They were wearing an overall type of suit which was dark and appeared black, but could have been silverish in the light. I began to remember this experience, which happened in 1970 or 1971, because I would wake up in the mornings in 2017 and see the faces of aliens outside my bedroom window of the house we lived in at the time, looking at me. This image kept repeating for several weeks. I was taking care of my Mother who was 80 at the time and cooking for her and going to her house. So, one day, I asked her about aliens at that house in the yard. She nodded and said "yes", and began to tell me what she remembered. We both had our memories wiped somehow and never spoke about it since it happened, but the same details come from both of us and we know it happened. She unfortunately passed away this year in May. I interviewed her on my YT channel and have the link here: ruclips.net/video/ke5aJCUmFbk/видео.html "My Alien 5th Kind Encounter. 3 Greys With Mom Aboard In Front Yard 1971 Houston Flew w/Them." I have had since regression therapy with an expert on passed life regression trained by the Edgar Casey group. She actually went to High School with me and we are still friends now. I have remembered more of that experience through her first session, but the event is still not clear as to what they were teaching me, and why I was sitting at the controls flying the craft as they taught me. I will go back to her until i can get all of the information I can. I need to know what places we were visiting and what they were teaching me. As Travis said, there are certain details and things he said, nuances and phrases, where I know he is telling the truth. I believe a lot of people have these experiences and have not spoken out yet. My YT email is alexaquarius9@gmail.com if you would like to talk and compare my story to other experiencers you know about, so that we can both learn more about these beings, where they come from, and why they do this.
Thanks for the love and hopefully you enjoy some of the other podcasts on the channel as well. - Curt
@@TheoriesofEverything that is an odd post considering the subject of the original post
My entire family had terrifying encounters after we moved to Louisiana in 1965. My dad refused to admit it though. By 1988 I could no longer live there even though they gave me to home and farm. And the things followed me after I moved. In 1975 my brother was babysitting me on a Friday night. He went outside at around 11pm to connect our bass boat to the truck for a fishing trip the next morning. He came running back inside in a panic, told me to hide, grabbed a shotgun, and ran back outside.
After a little while he came back inside and got me. We went outside and about 300 yards away there was a glowing blue metallic ball above some trees. It would zip back and forth then go down and out of sight in a T pattern. It appeared to be about 15 feet in diameter more or less.
He called a friend of his nearby and told him to get a gun and camera ready and we were coming to get him. As soon as we pulled out on the road this thing instantly zipped over and was right above the truck about 20 feet above us. The engine died so we couldn`t drive away. He shoved me down into the floor of the truck and got out and aimed the gun at it. It instantly zipped straight up into the sky and vanished.
Nobody answered the door at his friend`s house so we left. We ran into another guy he knew after going down the road closer to where we`d seen it hovering over the trees. The time should have been no later than 15 minutes after midnight but the guy told us it was after 3am.
In 1999 I was fishing at night around 11pm on the Louisiana side of the Sabine river. I was just checking a catfishing spot in a bay beside the river with rods because the water was rising and the catfish usually start biting in that area when the river rises. I had planned to get back to the boat dock in our yard before midnight because a TV show I planned to watch was coming on. If the catfish were biting I planned to put out trotlines and hoop nets the next day to catch fish to sell.
Right after I tied the boat up and threw out my rods two huge rectangle shaped things way bigger than mobile homes appeared in a cow pasture down the river. They were flying (more like floating) along some power lines,one on either side, and slowly coming towards me. Each of them had four squares of soft yellowish/white light on the front that covered the entire front except for black borders around them.
I turned off my light and reeled in my rods, cranked the motor, and started puttering as fast as I could safely go in the dark towards a canal leading back to our boat dock. I had to go towards these things which were slowly coming towards me so I was about to panic. One started going up and the other down as the four square panels of light began to turn into squares inside squares until they became very bright and pretty brilliant sparkling dots of multicolored lights. Then they blinked off and vanished. They never made any sounds. I remember on the way out there while in the canal seeing a very quick flash of colors to my right through the fog in the trees but it was dim and I assumed it came from a spotlight beam on the other side of the island.
When I reached the boat dock only minutes later my girlfriend was standing there looking very upset. She told me it was after 5am. It should have been just after 11pm. I never went fishing out there again and I normally fished several times a week.
Black Triangles are ours. Stan Deyo helped design them in Pine Gap Australia.
@@AlexAquarius963 black triangles are actually both man made and alien. Ours are copycat.
this is the best interview I have seen with Mr. Walton.
It seems like Travis Walton has a better understanding of reality than many physicists.
nope
In every interview the impression I get is this is a man of integrity and always aware of what he feels are fair observations. He never embellishes, deviates or sensationalises his experience and he’s very respectful of the skeptical view. Mainly because I think if he hadn’t had this happen to him he’d be of the same opinion. He’s a very intelligent and credible witness and I’ve always applauded his pragmatic approach. I think he’s a very unique individual and someone from whom we can deepen our understanding of an extraordinary phenomenon.
It's always important to clear the air when talking about this kind of stuff and acknowledging the very legitimate concerns and views of skeptics. I've had multiple UFO sightings, and if ever I bring them up or I'm asked to talk about them, I make it clear that I'm not trying to convert anyone and that I'm just sharing what I saw. I talk about my own skepticism of some of the sightings as well as how I would've reacted to hearing this from someone else had it not happened to me. Unfortunately, there will always be some who just refuse to think it's anything but embellishments, mistaken identity, or lies. I try my best to be respectful yet sincere.
I'd be lying if I didn't hold some hope that people might at least consider that my experience was legitimate, regardless of their views on what it was. I have no idea beyond what I saw in the sky and how it made me feel. You won't change anyone's mind or even make them more curious if you don't respect the skeptical point of view, because it IS a very valid point of view. It's the complete unwillingness to hear it and categorically labeling it false on principle that I have objections with. Everyone should question. I've been through my own periods of doubting what I saw with my own eyes with other witnesses. It's natural when confronted with something so mindbogglingly out of the ordinary. These things are still unknown, after all.
@@amphibeingmcshpongletron5026 thanks for your reply. I completely agree. There’s always going to be people who simply won’t listen or have made their mind up. Usually without knowing much about the subject other than what most people see in movies or read in the tabloids. Which is fine. So I think a lot of this is simply down to education and awareness. I’ve had one sighting I can be sure about, although like you, I’m constantly going over it and debating it in my own mind. And I had another experience when I was younger but because of memory and it being so long ago I honestly don’t know what to think about that one. It feels like a dream after all this time and has to be processed through a child’s mind so who knows, but it left a lasting impression on me. As such I’ve been drawn to this topic my whole life. From when I was able to read I was soon getting books from the local library. I don’t tell anyone about it in person. Only four people know, my wife and daughters daughter two close friends. Like many of us who want answers or at least to be able to talk about it without ridicule, I think the most important step we can take is slowly changing the culture and the discourse around UFO’s. Take it out of the hands of paranormal entertainment hacks and into the public domain as a serious subject worthy of our attention.
@@ImNotHereEither Absolutely. I think we're seeing a lot of that positive change in cultural discourse now. There's still a lot that needs to change and even more that we need to learn.
@@amphibeingmcshpongletron5026 Right. You are full of as much BS as Travis.
@@amphibeingmcshpongletron5026 great name by the way 🤣🤣 Sounds like a Monty Python character.
Curt thank you for all your work in the UFO field recently! Your interviews are simply wonderful!
i have to admit Travis is one of the few people I beleive actually had a genuine experience , he is not exaggerating and comes across as a gentle , genuine , intelligent and truthful ...
I truly hope Travis can find the funding for a new movie. I also pray he has A LOT of say regarding the script. I feel Hollywood turned his experience into some horror movie that it was not. He admits to being terrified but he also said he feels these being were possibly trying to undo any harm that came to him as he approached the ship. That’s the movie I want to see. The truth. Thanks Travis for all your interviews. You could walk away from it all, but you don’t trying to get the truth out to the public. ❤️🙏
Thank you, Travis, there are many, many people who stand with your account.
Curt this was another great one!! You were able to show the humanity and hell these people have to go through just to speak the truth of their experience. This world is way bigger than we’ve been told, we gotta always think bigger
At 1:04 when he talks about the grey alien blinking... that's exactly what you see in the skinny bob footage. Large blinking eyelids.
Curt is a very good, persistent questioner. We can see quite clearly that Travis has made the whole thing up. Great interview!
You’re far and away my favorite interviewer in general, but specifically for this phenomenon, and absolutely love your in-depth, extensive preparation for each interviewee. Oh! And thank you for asking thoughtful follow up questions. All the best!
Yes. No.”softball” questions and no deceitful answers
Great interview .Please get Salma Siddick she is one of the witnesses that saw the one of the beings and the craft in the Ariel School sighting in Zimbabwe in 1994.Her description of the event are one of the best.

Agreed. Would be a GREAT interviewee
Absolutely amazing. One of the greatest interviews I've ever seen. Thank you Curt for doing this! Looking forward to more awesome content from you!
Fun fact: I was born near where this happened and my dad knew Travis. Don’t know how well he knew him, but it’s a very small community. My parents still live there and I asked my dad a couple weeks ago if he believes the story, and he just said, “I don’t know”. Still not sure how I feel about the case. My brother saw him years later in snowflake. He said that the word around town was that he became much more of a mellow quiet guy after the events. 🤷♂️
He’s right about remote locations and no light pollution.travis said the area was prone to a lot of lightning strikes, lightning strikes produce radiation.
This was a good one. I feel terrible for Travis. I get his hesitation. Dude's been burned alive by so many people wanting to use him for money or to discredit him. Shit has got to hurt. I am thankful he's still out there telling his story.
I really don't know how to think about UFO's and alien abductions. But I've always believed Travis's story.
Also the video was taken down as I was watching. Now I've got to wait a whole day to find out how aliens walk!
I need to speak to a manager.
So true, i feel bad for the guy. He must have been paraded around by fools and targeted by assholes.
I for one DO NOT WANT TO GET ABDUCTED!! because I won't be able to keep quiet and people will kill me for lieing 😂!
Yes, I agree. Unlike Bob Lazar…where there are some doubts, Travis Walton has courageously stepped out in front of the inquisition and has confirmed his story. His words are carefully measured as he cannot afford to misspeak.
Travis is the real deal
@@ivobiancucci4528 totally convinced.
Yeah poor him, he’s famous, possibly making money off this experience alone, was lucky enough to get abducted and see the inside of an alien ship when other fanatics spend their WHOLE LIFE just trying to get a glimpse but yeah trauma! And this is coming from someone who’s experienced much trauma but I CHOOSE to face it instead of run from it because running from it only intensifies the trauma. I may sound insensitive and I really don’t care but people need to step out of their identities for a minute so they won’t be so blinded inside the bubble of their identity… Now I await the inevitable angry people who don’t understand my point and wanna be super defensive over traumatized people and no fucking wonder the issues continue because traumatized people don’t have the balls to face it. I only care about truth. When you give people the room to respect and polish that trauma, this shit will never get resolved.
*I was basically screaming like a crazy man, and that's nothing that encourages conversation*
Hahaha. That had me rolling.
Great dude, and great interview!
There's so much potential in making a psychological drama film focusing on Travis's alien abduction and its backlash, can you imagine a modern movie with a good and accurate depiction with a good director? If it's real, it's real. No matter how outlandish.
"For advanced consciousness, telepathy is inevitable." I hope you're right. But I also hope we dont lose that warmth that comes from facial and body expression.
You don’t have to worry about that because you’ll be long gone bc evolution is a slow process
My man! I was having the worst day ever and I needed this before I slept
Was your day worse than Travis’s day in 1975?
Good luck with those dreams buddy. Hoping ya didn't pop a melatonin before hand.
@@mjjumps 😁👍
@@sovpsyche5427 na man... something much much stronger. A couplek of muscle relaxers and Xanax. Had a feeling past 2 days that I was ill. Muscle pain confirmed it was covid and no ordinary fever. So yes I needed this ;)
You're brave to watch an interview detailing an alien abduction before bed 😂
Thank you both for this story and assessment of an abduction memory. I have high compassion for him for all the negativity he faces. Hopefully soon it will come to light and he can be vindicated and accepted. We have government documents which now verify knowledge about the existence of craft that is otherworldly. I admire you for your tenacity in trying to understand deeper and connecting the dots.
I too was abducted several years ago, I had a checkers board
with me and challenged the commander of the ufo to play a 2 out
of 3 match if I should win I would be released if not the aliens
could do there experiments he agreed and the game was on
I lost the first game but rallied to win the next 2, and being a
man of his word he let me go some how nobody believes me
what do you think?
Curt's patience is unmatched 🙏
I want to not believe him so bad for some reason (even though I believe in the recent UFO activities) but he really comes off as someone who TRULY believes his version of events. Hard to argue that.
What makes you “not want to believe”?

This man has to explain nothing.Unless you too have put your life on hold for a cause.God bless you Mr. Walton
Thank you Travis, for sharing your experience with the world.
Thank you! I enjoyed this interview and hope Mr. Walton finds peace one day.
Thank you so much!
My fav podcast. Unlike most others you keep an open mind and imo you ask the best questions. Other podcasters will get a great guest on and just miss opportunity after opportunity to dig in deeper with certain questions. You're very analytical and thorough and that results in little to no stones left unturned. Keep up the awesome work brother 👍👍
Thank you for having the courage to come forward with your story all these years Travis! And as for Theories of everything, love your channel and all the great people your bringing forward! Really doing great things for humanity in my eyes! Not a doubt in my mind of any of the topics talked about on your channel! True believer! 💚✨
Travis Walton you have an amazing spirit.
I want you to know that I have NEVER doubted your experience.
Stay strong and never change who you are.
Hugs and love sent your way.
❤🦋
TOTAL RESPECT FOR U TRAVIS.
U are a brave man, and I appreciate Ur total transparency about Ur experiences.
It's also great to hear it all again straight from the horses mouth, and all in one place. Rather than retold, possibly getting facts mistaken etc.
I've had a few experiences over the past nearly 34 years since the first that I remember, being about 7 or 8 I think.
Then end of last year, in fact prob about every decade, one not being a ufo.
